The story behind

Simply Red released Your Mirror in 1992, as their fifth single from their album Stars, released in 1991. The song was written and produced by Mick Hucknall, with Stewart Levine. It reached number 17 on the UK Singles Chart. It has a slow tempo, with a bass and piano that stand out, and a voice that gets harder at times, as if talking to someone who doesn't want to listen. The lyrics seem like an internal dialogue of a man who feels between idealism and disillusionment, as if looking in a mirror and not recognizing what he sees. The version included in Simply Red 25: The Greatest Hits has a more present guitar solo. The song sounds like a moment of tension, but also of clarity.
